Scotts place in Chicago... The REVEAL

[BeautyMeetsKelly]

if i had my own place.....i would die of hoarding....TOOO CALLEAANNN

[ashidorkface]

Robesonnnnn u are amazing! Decoratey room =( my hell hole room is just not welcoming at all =(

[robesondesign]

Thank you so much for the compliment...I am blessed with wonderful children! :)

[esjeebeee]

You got nice looking kids. Great genes!

[robesondesign]

@esjeebeee ... Aweee Thank you. I love them tons! RR

[tnprice24]

Great tips to hide cords and bulky things on wall

[MORENOR89]

wow i love it!

[ediemcd]

You guys are awesome. You have given me so many good ideas! I wish I had an Ikea close by!!! Keep the ideas coming. Scott you are adorable...Rebecca you look like his sister...I can't believe you are his mom!

[TIsgro1]

Your son is adorable - And what a hottie you are in that photo at the end with the two of you. Way too cute - You look more like a couple. You're a beautiful woman anyway, but seriously! I love the idea with the woven panel covering the cord. I've been looking for that sort of material for exactly that look. I was thinking of some grass cloth wall paper glued to cardboard. Your use of this panel from Ikea is AWESOME!! It's already made and probably a lot less expensive. I'm going sopping :-)

[bimbojano]

Oh! The fireplace is perfect for small spaces like ours... i want one 3

[bimbojano]

Oh! I love the fireplace! Absolutely great for small spaces! I want one ! 3

[bimbojano]

I love this video! The house is very much similar to our apartment here in Japan as well as the design. Thanks for the idea.

[Flexmeister]

nice--is Ikea and homegoods your fav places--do you get a designer discount and how do you do that?

[pixielovee90]

i love this video! me and my husband live in a 1 bedroom apartment and the floorplan is really similar. Thanks for the great ideas!:)

[pixielovee90]

where did u get the chest drawer where the tv stands?

[victoriawyho]

very helpful!

amazingly put together!

[lexanya1]

the way you hid the fuse box was genius. All your videos are full of great ideas and are helpful

[diahannnicole]

His apartment looks great I have a 1 bedroom apartment and this has given me great ideals. Thanks I cant wait to start !!

[fishnmum]

Did you start with the rug and blend colors, or the picture or the couch.. amazing all the colors make a nice flow. Thanks to you and Scott for sharing.

[FatimaZahra2501]

I love it I love it and I love it, good tips, the colors are perfect everything is perfect.

Great job and I loooooooooooooove U God bless U....;-)

[shimirabilis]

I have some of these same pieces from ikea and I'm definitely going to rearrange them now. I also really enjoyed the great wire cover-ups, such good ideas!

[Bobesque]

2 words: sassy boots

[909laura]

You're such an inspiration ! I love your work, you're an incredible interior designer. I'm also from San Diego, it's been a dream of mine to decorate homes since I was a freshman in high school, now that I'm a sophomore in college I'd love to make my dreams come true. You're truly an artist, I hope I become as great as you in the future =]

[LifeChanger711]

Thumbs up on u and ur son's vision for the spaces within his home. It really looks great. I like the toilet seat idea bc my husband doesn't like the idea of the normal toilet covers that come with the matching rug sets. It's really hard to do the bathrooms in a creative manner bc u really don't have much to do.But u tied it in well with the rest of the home. I think I'll check out this Ikea place bc u r finding awesome items there that look GREAT! I love the rug.

[SstunaJ]

i love the fireplace. where did u get it?

[JMacklin724]

I love it and yes the tips help so much:-)

[undrasta1010]

Finally an interior design reveal that helps people living in apartments. Thank you so much for the ideas, its always hard to start with the typical white wash apartment design. Great arrangement.

[stayingINstyle]

Scott's place looks amazing as always. Thank you so much for giving me the design plan for Patrick's room. I can't wait to implement this project and will definitely send you pictures and video!

[VLicious8704]

It looks awesome! I think my favorite is mixing chocolate brown, that more "tough" gray, and the orange accent. I would NEVER have thought brown could work in that color scheme.

My trouble is I know what I like to see but I can't figure out how I'd make it work in my space. :P I guess that's why you get paid for what you do, eh? :) I love it!

[dhmabr]

[dawnten]

Beautiful Job! Miss Chicago so so much! Could you please PLEASE tell me where you found the picture of the pussy willows behind your bed?? I am in love and need reminders of home here in the bland desert I am living in now. Thank YOU! xo

[signupsigma]

I didn't know he's your son. Ha ha... I actually subscribed to the both of you without realizing the relationship.

[signupsigma]

Isn't he the " socaldude" socal guy?

[larrydav1d]

Where does Scott keep his kitchen appliances? I love to cook so my kitchen looks so cluttered. Espresso machine, grinder, food processor, blender, etc. Also, where did he get that medusa tree light thingamajig? Is it battery operated? Oh and btw, great job! It's absolutely beautiful. Love the dark espresso look.

[lewisjayde85]

What about a clock for your friends is New Zealand??? Haha.

You know we've had another major quake hey. We needed a phone call to distract us - Calley ended up on the floor again haha.

Love your work Rebecca - I watched your vlogs from the beginning, I too want to be an interior designer :)

[cherrey0326]

wow! Scott really did move a lot! hehe.. I think I love this new place coz of the balcony and there's more light coming inside than those of his old places.. love the design as always..

[0406veronica]

I have been waiting to see this reveal! It looks amazing, great team work. :)

[soitsawhat]

I want those nightstand lamps, great pick! The orange and charcoal towels, never would have thought of that. The way you hung the picture over the fuse box, brilliant!

[mellyie36]

THUMBS COMPLETELY UP !!! This looks nothing like a young guy apt. under 30. Make sure you call your mother everyday and tell her you LOVE HER!

[kandeesfan316]

Wow! I loved it! And where did you get the fireplace from? What are those called? I would loooove to have one of those!

[lovels2010]

I love your apartment. Looks very nice! Good job.

[CasualLuxuries]

I love's it :D



[socaldude3077]

Hey all!! I got the fireplace from the local grocery store "Jewel-Osco" the day after thanksgiving! I think I was a random item to have but it's made by the company "PROlectrix".... Hope that helps ;-)

[justwant2bhappy]

It turned out awesome! I enjoyed the video.

[07wickedchic]

Looks amazing Scott!! :D

[chanjo5799]

This is really nice, i can probably use this as inspiration when i get my first place. And also i thought i would tell you that scott is really cute:) lol

[KittenLover105]

Hii Rebecca!

I lovee your video's and I'd like to know afew tip's for small rooms.

I have a very small room and I would like to know some idea's and tips!

Fact

-My room is hot pink.

- I <333333 cats.

- The main thing's I'd like to have in my room are a desk, shelf, two bed side table's.

Thanks :3

[TheGreenAppleHome]

LOVE homegoods..it should be called homegods..lol..o.k WHERE did you get that sleek fireplace from? I have been looking at fireplace options- portable ones and this is the nicest smallest one that actually produces heat and doesn't take up floor space! PLEASE do tell!! Also, the lights in this place are so hip!! yay!

[robesondesign]

@TheGreenAppleHome I have an email into Scott and have asked him to respond to everyone who has asked about the fireplace... If my memory serves me correctly, he bought it at a grocery store... RANDON I KNOW!! and the deal was it was nearly $200.00 but was on sale and if you bought it, you got a $50.00 grocery gift card with it.... LOL .. I know, it was crazy! He'll respond soon but thats what I recall from his story.hope that helps for now... RR

[beautygirl03]

The apartment is gourgeous!! Great job!

[jadebur]

Looks a million dollars ! You guys do give me good ideas.. Loved the placement of the vases on the bedside tables. Also the use of the drop lights bedside the tv. Covering the fuse box. and the use of pic's etc to cover wires. And the way you tie all the colours together too. I love the chocolate tones anyway , seeing what you put with them just inspires me :-)

~Jan.

[robesondesign]

@jadebur .. Jan, I have to say... You are such a faithful follower and consistent encourager through your comments. I just want to say thank you! I see your comments and appreciate your perspective, your thorough assessment and recap as well as your continued support of all things beautiful and design related!. Thank you so much! Great and loyal subscribers like yourself are what keep me going! ;-) RR

[sharonie11]

It really came out nice, great ideas.

[ablondee]

Where is the fireplace from? Great ideas! Perfect for rentals!

[forestnj]

I love the interior design of Scott's new place, but I really loved the idea of wearing a suit vest with a graphic tee and jeans. I am so going to wear that to my next party. lol Thanks for the great idea!

[robesondesign]

@forestnj : nice compliment ... always nice to see your username ... ;-) RR

[abdullahmunir]

I love how the ottoman the most! Did u put anything on top, or just leave it empty? nice.

[robesondesign]

@abdullahmunir thanks.. we did put a tray on top so it could hold food and drinks. The bummer is, I couldn't find what I really wanted during the short time I was there. The tray we bought is too small and has a graphic pattern in it.. It will do for now but not ideal... thats why it wasn't in the pictures... good eye for detail :-) RR

[IWishUDidntNoMyName]

You guys do awesome work!

[robesondesign]

@IWishUDidntNoMyName ... OK I just have to say, that's about the most creative user name I've seen on youtube!

Oh... and thanks for the nice compliment ;-) RR

[2012Honolulu]

Looks awesome!

[greenleigh82]

That fireplace is absolutely wicked! I love how you take this bland and vanilla space and just make it scream fabulous. It looks so comfy and homey after you guys decorated it. (Ikea rocks!) Love it!

[robesondesign]

@greenleigh82 Aweee thank you! RR

[abster120]

So cozy!!

[ToCoolToCare721]

ohh my god that is the coolest fire place in the whole entire universe!

[TyrelleShepherd]

AWWWWWWWWWWWWESOME !! o_O

[hellohellohello69696]

What camera do you use Rebecca? :)

[robesondesign]

@hellohellohello69696 Canon 60D... but Scott uses something different and both cameras were used here. Still photos were mine... I think we used his for the walkthrough. If not, i needed to adjust the color better I think... I also use a wide angle canon lens..

EFS - 10 - 22.

[101unique]

wonderfully done, we want that fireplace

[lakegirl645]

YOU ARE A GENIUS WHEN IT COMES TO SMALL SPACES!!! You're a fabulous designer anyway, but you have such a talent for maximizing space!

[Thilde90]

is the fireplace electric, bio or gass?

[scrappinbeauty]

Okay! I just have to say I wish more men enjoyed the thought of having matching and beautiful comforter sets on their beds. I love your bedroom and your style; I am also a huge fan and lover of Ikea!!! I must say in this video you guys were talking my language, I feel like I can relate to Scott’s spaces after been lost in my space for a while now. After viewing a small apartment space various the beautiful homes that mom designs so beautifully. I can totally commit to some changes for sure now.

[zSeher87]

Where can I find the fireplace?

[2boyzgo]

Think of all the IDEAS we get as your kids move from place to place and we get to watch the makeovers! Love it! Another great Robeson design - you make a great team! I'm heading to the IKEA. Thank you, thank you for sharing your talents.

Scott's place looks so cozy and the colors are warm. Love the tips for hanging the lighting and hiding the cords. Also genius on the fuse box. Your videos are the BEST. The ideas are realistic, cost conscience, and look sharp. Love you RR.

[annabop12]

It looks so great how you guys tied all the primary colors of the apartment in all the rooms. It looks so fantastic!!

[53CathyS]

You both are the best. Thanks for sharing.

[wdbreezy]

This shows that, if done with some thought and style, you make have a gorgeous interior using some lower end products. Well done, Scott and Rebecca ! I'm ten minutes from an IKEA and am armed with some great ideas now.

[xSimplyRice]

[Kimmykade78]

[jeanblaaa]

Hey Rebecca! Love your videos, they inspire me to be creative with my home. I am going to school this fall with a minor in interior design. My major is psychology :) I was hoping you can give me some tips and the steps on becoming a great interior designer? like how did you get your own firm and start getting clients? Did you ever intern when you were just starting out? Thanks!

[ChattyChic247]

This is absolutely gorgeous! I love the colour scheme...

Another amazing transformation and video.

Great job, Rebecca and Scott. :)

I love how everything came together. I would need the same in my bedroom. I got every furniture, what I need is some art pieces, maybe some rearranging:)

[lmmbchampion]

Another masterpiece, Rebecca!! I absolutely love it!! Hey, I have a silly question--how do you pronounce your last name? Is it Robe-son or Rob-e-son? For some reason it seems like you and Scott say it differently--I'm sure it's just me:)

xoxo Melody

[missfatalefemme]

I love it! I see that you dressed to match the decor Scott, Great job!

[Sassymarkrep]

The place looks great. 

[TheBeautynbeyond]
